How To Change Welding and Grinding Multipliers on Your Space Engineers Server

1. Log In to Your Panel


2. Select the ‘Files’ Tab

The Cybrancee panel dashboard with an arrow pointing to the Files tab.

3. Select the ‘config’ Folder

The server file manager showing the config folder.

4. Select the ‘Saves’ Folder

The Saves folder highlighted in the server file manager.

5. Select the ‘World’ Folder

The World folder highlighted inside the Saves directory.

6. Inside the ‘World’ Folder, Select the ‘Sandbox_config.sbc‘ File

The Sandbox_config.sbc file highlighted in the world folder.

7. Adjust the Welding and Grinding Multipliers

Scroll through the file or use Ctrl + F to locate the specific tags for these tools. The number between the tags acts as a multiplier (where 1 is the default speed).

To change how fast blocks are built: Find the <WelderSpeedMultiplier> tag. Change the value to a higher number to make welding faster. For example:

<WelderSpeedMultiplier>2</WelderSpeedMultiplier>

This will make welding twice as fast.

To change how fast blocks are dismantled: Find the <GrinderSpeedMultiplier> tag. Increase this number to speed up how fast players and ship grinders can tear down blocks.

Note: Setting these to 2 or 5 gives a great boost to quality of life without completely breaking the survival aspect of the game.
